Re: The Final US Election Thread
One possible silver lining for those of us tired of living in wacky world of political correctness...
When President B. Hussein Obama is elected, will we finally stop having to hear about the black struggle?
Every American has been inundated with that singular obsession through the school system, the media, and pop culture for decades. Has the promise land been reached? Do the rest of us have to keep hearing about it?
Hopefully this election will deflate the likes of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. I think it's high time that the mexicans got their shot at telling the world how the WASPs have kept them down and how they deserve handouts. Its only fair. Sorry Asians, you've been far to successful for that sort of tomfoolery...
Re: The Final US Election Thread
Remember the egg upon many a face during the 2004 exit polling. I wouldn't start slaughtering the bull for Obama just yet.

Re: The Final US Election Thread
My hope is that McCain will win. But if he loses, I want him to be completely, totally, and utterly crushed. Maybe it will force the Republicans to reform a little bit.
Re: The Final US Election Thread
I'd suspect if McCain can win... I mean, he can win, but I'm not sure that will happen.

You know what is great my American Conservative friends? I remember vividly on these boards CR stating after 2004 how brilliant it was that every branch of govt was Republican and how thigns were changing into a new dawn of Conservative thinking. Well... ahhaahahahahahaha.
The early house calls are giving the Dems a 90+ seat majority!!! The Senate is going to be 57/60 to 43/40... And the President race looks, well I called it a week ago ;) Next the Supreme Court.. ;p
As an onlooker who likes America deeply, it makes me feel happy!

Re: The Final US Election Thread
And Obama pulled ahead slightly in Indiana...this is going to be a close one.
Re: The Final US Election Thread
If it makes you happy, it makes me sad.
I'm not sure how putting the dems in complete control of Congress is a good idea. The idea seemed to work real well with the Republicans.

Re: The Final US Election Thread
No we wont but that is a forgone conclusion anyway. I wonder if in 50 years they will be able to keep this up after the hispanics have passed them and they are the ones doing the "oppressing" It is rather sad that we allow a whole race to be kept down simply for power politics.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
Re: The Final US Election Thread
What are your predictions for Virginia? With just a few polls in, CNN has McCain at an 11% lead. I don't think that will hold up, but I think the victory will be narrow either way.
Re: The Final US Election Thread
Remember that the results we have from Indiana at this point do not take into account the vote from most of the urban areas, which are Democratic.
@ EMFM - I think Obama by about 5 in Virginia, maybe more.

Painful memory's are coming flooding back...
But this is a new dawn, democrats control all three powers, years of republican damage can be undone, foriegn relations can be mended, negoations can take place with foriegn powers instead of useless strongman posturing...
This could be all a bit of a posioned chalice... economy in a state and all the houses in democrat control... on the other hand i think after 8 years of bush how could it get much worse... all the powers under one party isn't a great thing but under obama i believe it will be ok...

Re: The Final US Election Thread
Alright we've started to get results from Indianapolis, which could well determine if Obama wins Indiana.

Re: The Final US Election Thread
I'm ready to call it... Kentucky has long been a bell weather, or at least that's what I've deluded myself into believing until more states are called.

Most of the dead people voted early and as such their counting occurs later.

Re: The Final US Election Thread
I feel sorry for McCain, im starting to buy into seamus theory about him (it was seamus right ?) i just wish he had won the nomination back in 2000, things would have been so much better...
Carolina (south i think) called for McCain
16-3

Re: The Final US Election Thread
Yeah the McCain of 2000 at least was still a moderate. The new one is running far too conservatively.
No surprise about South Carolina. North Carolina will be the one to watch.

Pennsylvania and New Hampshire for Obama. Big blow for McCain.
